Pros

Great Health Benefits. I work with amazing people that want to do their best.

Cons

Exhausting work within the FC environment. I can only move so fast and I am always worried about my rate and I do pretty good. It is really hard to "move up" now. I have had a couple interviews and was inclined, but I never was offered a higher position.

Pros

Amazon is a very innovative and progressive company. Amazon values employees who are motivated and exceed expectations. There is a large potential for promotion, Amazon is growing at an incredible rate

Cons

Very competitive environment. Not a company for someone who wants to come to work do the minimum and go home. Some good employees get looked over for advancement because they don't have a four year degree

Pros

Amazon is a place where you are allowed to explore, invent and simplify. you learn you grow, and you make an impact on millions of lives. If I look back at my 2 years with Amazon my learning curve is almost a vertical line and so is every one's. I love it here.

Cons

work life balance is something you have to take care if.
